Shoes different lengths

By kevinln Ranked #567 - Climbing Shoes April 18, 2011

Upgraded from the Evolv Optimus Primes. These shoes are super aggressive with great rubber. Sole is stiff and edging is great in these shoes. Why the 3 stars? The shoes were different sizes. Both were tagged 40 (I wear size 8.5-9 in street shoes for a sizing reference), but the left shoe was a tad bigger. Not sure why this is the case, but I didn't notice until about 2 weeks in. I had always felt that my left foot wasn't as secure on certain foot chips as my right foot, but I always just assumed it was because of the specific foot chip. I decided to compare the shoes and the left shoes was about a quarter inch or less longer. Might not seem like much, but it was for me. Will return mine with BC's great return policy. Will probably reorder in a 39.5 and hope for the best.
